**All HGVS expressions:** `NM_000202.8:c.(?_1)_(1653_?)del`

## Gene constraint & dosage {#gene-context}

**IDS** population constraint: ClinGen dosage — haploinsufficiency 3/3, triplosensitivity 0/3. *Lower LOEUF and higher pLI indicate a gene that tolerates loss-of-function poorly; ClinGen dosage is the curated haploinsufficiency call.*

Curated gene–disease validity (ClinGen):

- **mucopolysaccharidosis type 2** — Definitive (XL)

## Protein context {#protein}


AlphaFold model confidence (whole protein): pLDDT 93.39, 88% of residues very-high.

**2 experimental structure(s)** (PDB): [5FQL](https://www.rcsb.org/structure/5FQL), [6IOZ](https://www.rcsb.org/structure/6IOZ).

## What this gene does {#gene-function}

*Describes the biological roles of IDS (the gene this variant disrupts) — not effects measured for this specific variant. A damaging variant is expected to affect these functions and pathways; the degree depends on the variant.*

**How this variant is thought to act:** IDS's established molecular role includes iduronate-2-sulfatase activity. In Reactome, IDS is annotated in disease pathway(s) including **MPS II - Hunter syndrome (CS/DS degradation)**, **MPS II - Hunter syndrome (HS-GAG degradation)**.

**Disease mechanism (Reactome):** IDS loss or alteration is curated in [MPS II - Hunter syndrome (CS/DS degradation)](https://reactome.org/content/detail/R-HSA-9953078), [MPS II - Hunter syndrome (HS-GAG degradation)](https://reactome.org/content/detail/R-HSA-2206296).

### Pathways affected {#pathways}

IDS participates in **4 Reactome pathways** (⚕ = disease pathway):

| Pathway (Reactome) | Evidence |
